Historic: Bill That Would Abolish Abortion Granted a Hearing in Texas as "Prayers and Worship Fill Rotunda"Pro-lifers flocked to the capitol building in Austin to pray and worship. "Amazing Grace" and "A Mighty Fortress Is Our God" could be heard ringing out throughout the beautiful rotunda. Others got down on their knees to pray for the abolition of abortion.
What would the bill do? The Abolition of Abortion in Texas Act, HB 896, was originally authored by Arlington Rep. Tony Tinderholt (R) and would issue a blanket ban on abortion, regardless of conflicting federal laws or court decisions. It would also subject any who were involved with abortive procedures, mothers or physicians, to criminal prosecution. Part of the bill, which seeks to grant inalienable rights to the unborn, reads as follows: "A living human child, from the moment of fertilization on fusion of a human spermatozoon with a human ovum, is entitled to the same rights, powers, and privileges as are secured or granted by the laws of this state to any other human child." What has the reaction been? Despite the tabling of such a bill being seen as a big win for the pro-life community, many are apprehensive about the consequences of allowing criminal prosecutions to take place. Texans for Life president, Kyleen Wright, noted that her group "opposes criminalizing or penalizing women as it only protects the abortionist." Most pro-lifers, however, were thrilled to see so many giving testimony in support of the outlawing of abortion. Click here to continue reading.
